    When I was in 7th grade my history teacher asked if the Boston Massacre was really a massacre. (She wanted the answer to be “no” so she could discuss propaganda) I said yes—it was the shedding of innocent blood by armed men. (I know; I was already hooked) And got yelled at. 🙃https://twitter.com/KevinLevin/status/1235550849805488134 …

        What always gets me is how much of the Bostonian rage boiled down to the British soldiers stealing their jobs working the ropeline at the harbor.

        Well, I have never found a definitive definition of 'massacre', other than a group of armed people killing a group of innocent unarmed people. This may not qualify as the 'innocent unarmed people' started it by throwing rocks, according to my history class long ago.

        Taught 8th USH for years. Loved teaching the Boston massacre and had many lively discussions about propaganda, massacres, bias and whatever else came up.
